Originally posted by tysonj25 took me a while to dl it (I have been in beta for abit) but can't play because its so choppy! I have a decent system not top of the line but not bargian either and I can't play it I play(ed) EQ2 easily on my system and this game can't even play. Oh well it seems fun for 2 min till I get tired of the choppiness You are right i think you need a high end system to play the game decent, i hear mostly people debatting ingame about what card or system they are running and allot of complains about lag, like i said i experiance some lag when entering a busy crowded building but nothing different then i exp. in other games aswel sometimes. Wel lets see what vangaurd will bring me today :) ------------------------------------------------------------ YOU do not need to agree with me as I am only SHARING my own opinion which can be different from yours.

This game performas horribly bad and I have a mid range system. I can play alot of games with little or no problems like BF 2142 and Oblibvion. Only way I can play this game is to turn down all the effects. What good is that ? With all of it turned down it looks like EQ all over again. Theres no way im goin to spend another $300 - $1000 to play a game. The game has alot of promise but the performance of the game is way bad. For a majority out there this game with be unplayable. I cant see release being any better really.

For those of you that have been wondering what the beta is like, here is a brief summary based on my experience: Note: unless you have 2.6+ ghz cpu, 1+ gb ram and geforce 6000+ graphics, don't waste your time as it won't be playable. 1) 6.5 GB download (plan on letting it run overnight). 2) unpacks to 17+ BG after install (should have 30 gb free for temp files). 3) about 100 mb of patching (up to an hour) 4) unless you have a high-end graphics card, turn down all the graphic settings. 5) nice downloadable user manual (read it so you won't get lost). 6) good selection of races and classes to choose from. 7) decent character appearance selection, but I've seen better. 8) typical UI and controls (WASD movement). 9) variety of different starting areas based on race. 10) nice progression of starter quests (like WoW). 11) advances are skill based but with level restrictions. 12) 2 harvesting skills can be chosen per character. 13) only 1 crafting skill per character, but lots of depth. 14) unique diplomacy system that affect other area of play. 15) lots of lag when the servers are loaded. 16) spawn rates don't scale with high player density (mob camping). 17) frequent server crashes (at least every hour so) 18) periodic client crash to desktop. 19) frequent game patches (daily or better). 20) it can be hard to find things (lots of yells of 'where is ...') Summary: This is a vary large and resource demanding game which looks very nice graphicly if you have a powerful card. There is lots of things to appeal to different play styles, but still needs balancing. The game is NOT ready to be released soon, but should be a great game once its debugged and polished.

According to the Vanguard website, this is NOT the Open Beta. They call Beta 5 (still closed, just added FP subcribers). Full-on Open Beta is expected to be soon. I preordered myself and am still waiting for my open beta key...

Aber das spiel hat einfach eine riesen welt mit genialer grafik das muss man einfach sagen. Wer gerne Everquest 2 spielt/e ist hier genau richtig da vom spielerischen aufbau her es sehr ähnlich ist. Die Beta ist top

However, since you signed up before the restriction, we're going to set aside some keys and make sure you get one." Two hours after recieving this mail i got the key
